Every recovery plan for an injury or operation requires a period of rest. For some it may be a few days, others it may mean months of rehabilitation. Whatever the recovery period, it is important for hospital teams to have comfortable furniture that supports their patients and helps them get back to normal life as soon as possible.

Medical recliner chairs are designed to provide patients with a comfortable way to rest whilst meeting the safety and medical needs of their recovery. High-quality recliners are essential furniture for all medical facilities including hospitals, aged care homes, and rehabilitation centres.

In this blog, we take a look at what makes medical recliners unique and vital to helping patient recovery.

What Are Medical Recliners?

Patients are often incapacitated to some extent following their operation and may struggle to move or position themselves. Medical recliners offer a comfortable way to rest and improve comfort.

They are designed to lower the chance of pressure sores, anxieties and other related effects of strenuous treatment. They have special features such as swivel casters to help move patients around and some even have a fold-away side table. Most chairs come in both manual and power recliner options too.

Most recliner chairs come in a variety of colours and finishes including fabric, leather and faux-leather options.

Different Types Of Medical Recliners

There are many different types of medical recliners to meet the needs of different patients.

At Midmed, we recliner chairs for elderly patients requiring round-the-clock care. This provides a soothing place for reading or simply watching television. There are also comfortable bariatric recliner chairs that are optimised for bariatric patients.

We also have a double seat which helps patients share a closer connection with their loved ones. This can be a great benefit to mental health and help to speed up recovery.

Overnight recliners can be converted flat as well, doubling as a sleeping bed and minimising moving disruption for patients.

The common feature between all of our medical recliners is that they are made to provide comfort for the patient. Medical recliner chairs offer full-body support, especially for lower back regions.
